I love to cook, and I am always searching for new recipes. My family enjoys a good burger, but we don’t eat a lot of meat and prefer poultry. I found this recipe online, and have made it multiple times for my immediate family and guests. It’s always a hit. The mushrooms really create a “meaty” flavor. –Sandy Sterthous, Recruiter, Human Resources
